About the Item

A large, original oil on canvas by Willem Knip (1883-1967). Entitled "Stil Water" it depicts the coastal town of St Tropez in France. It is signed W. A. Knip, 25 (1925). Frame width: 92cm (36"), Frame height: 52cm (20.5") Canvas width: 81cm (32"), Canvas height: 40cm (16") This wonderful Dutch Impressionist seascape is housed in its original gilt frame. The rear bears remnants of a label announcing Knip's death, dated 1967. It also states the title "Stil Water", the location "St Tropez", reiterates the artist name and further illegible details in pencil. The warm palette, free brushstrokes and atmospheric composition display Knip's enormous skill. It is in good condition, with minor signs of age. Biography: Willem Alexander Knip (1883–1967) was a leading painter of the Laren School. He initially trained as a decorative artist at the Quellinius School in Amsterdam and spent a period working in Chris Lebeau’s studio. Seeking to free himself from decorative stylistic influences, he moved to the Gooi region around 1900, where he developed a refined Impressionist approach. Travels to Paris, and later to Italy and Spain, brought a lighter, more airy quality to his palette. He favoured subjects such as landscapes, harbours, and townscapes. His work is held in several collections, including the Singer Laren museum.

1932 French Riviera Oil on Canvas Landscape by Gregoor Van Puyenbroeck
Located in Dallas, TX
Set in its original silvered leaf frame, this vibrant oil on canvas captures the sunlit charm of the island of Porquerolles on the French Riviera, painted in 1932. The scene depicts a Provençal village with terracotta rooftops, a church steeple rising over the clustered houses, and vineyard rows in the foreground, all set against a backdrop of deep blue waters and distant mountains under a luminous, cloud-filled sky. The artist’s rich brushwork and warm palette convey both atmosphere and place, creating a work full of depth and natural harmony. Signed in the lower right corner by Gregoor Van Puyenbroeck and dated on the verso, the painting remains in very good condition commensurate with age and use, with fresh, lively colors and appealing surface texture. Gregoor Van Puyenbroeck (Belgium, 1906–1982) was part of a family of artists, the brother of painter Jan Van Puyenbroeck. He studied at the Académie Royale des Beaux-Arts and the Institut des Beaux-Arts in Antwerp, where he was a pupil of Walter Vaes...
